Card Verification Number

The card verification number is printed on the card. This number is referred to as the "Card Verification Number," "Card Verification Value," "Card Verification Code" (CVV), "CVV2," "Personal Security Code" or "Security Code." The number is not embossed on the card and not printed on receipts. This makes it harder for anyone other than the cardholder to know what the code is. We require, for your safety and security, that you enter your card verification number.

MasterCard, Visa, and Discover

You can find your three-digit card verification number in the signature panel on the back of your credit card. Your credit card number should be printed here along with a three-digit card verification number at the end.

You can find your four-digit card verification number printed on the front of your American Express card, above the embossed credit card number, on either the right or the left side of the card.
